Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé de production d'un flux de gaz naturel liquéfié comportant le refroidissement d'au moins une portion du flux d'alimentation de gaz naturel pressurisé par un contact d'échange thermique avec des premier et deuxième fluides caloporteurs détendus utilisés dans des cycles frigorifiques indépendants. Le premier fluide caloporteur est choisi parmi le méthane, l'éthane et le gaz naturel traité et pressurisé. Le deuxième fluide caloporteur est l'azote.
